Hawthorne Race 1 - Race 1 - Starter Optional Claiming

LITTLE STEVEN (2) improved sharply on his eighth two starts back at Hawthorne Turf (Turf) with success over 1673m at this track (Dirt) three-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 0.8 lengths after being in contention on the turn. No reason he cannot salute again. HANDSOFFTHEGOODS (1) finished second when resuming from a spell last start over 1673m at this track. Has a sound record here with three wins and six minor placings from 18 starts. Best figures measure up favourably. OLIVERIO (4) was on a winning run of two races but last time out finished third over 1673m at this track. Well placed to return to best form. DOUBLE THUNDER (5) was in contention on the turn and finished third last start over 1673m at this track (Dirt), beaten 2 lengths. Will benefit from that outing. Worth plenty of thought.

Second run back. First-up after eight months 2nd in a small field at this track on June 11 over 1673m, 0.8 len behind Little Steven carrying 56kg at $12.80. Previously second-up ran second last of 8 at this track on May 25 2025 over 1673m, 12 len behind Eternally Grateful with 55.5kg at $58.20. Fitter for recent racing and is a winning hope.

Form hard to fault. Comes here off a 59-day let-up. Most recently 3rd of 7 at this track on May 7 over 1673m, 5 len behind Silver Quarters with 56kg at $7. The run before that won by 3 len at this track April 19 over 1673m defeating Wayllen Richard with 56kg at $3.20. Looks perfectly placed to score in this small field.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. First-up ran last in a small field at this track on May 3 over 1207m, 14 len behind Strange Arrange with 56kg at $17.10. Last start 3rd in a small field at this track on June 11 over 1673m, 2 len behind Little Steven carrying 56kg at $22.10. Close to a win. One of the better chances.
